Lecture 19: Biological Reactions of Amino Acids
Chemical Properties of Amino Acids reversible reaction- reduction by
the enzyme MsrA/B using the
Methionine- Oxidation coenzyme NADPH
.
radical mechanism – initiated by OH
radical released from reagents such as
H2O2
methioin sulfoxide is involved in regulation of protein function in the cell - the
oxidised version usually loses its function => mechanism to switch on and off a
protein.
Serine-Phosphorylation
Protein Kinase
